Q&A: Is it okay to have a 3-page resume if one has over 10 years of experience with just 2 jobs?1/12/2023 No. Recruiters and hiring managers do not want to read three pages of information. It's understandable to want to share everything you've done in your career - to acknowledge all of your hard work. You can still share your greatest career achievements in two pages or less. Make your resume as concise and impactful as possible. The key is to remember that your resume should be written for the reader, not yourself. Give the reader what they want - share what's in it for them if they hire you. Helpful tips:
On our NetKi Enterprises YouTube page, there is a video titled "How to Write a Fantastic Accomplishment Statement! that provides more insight on how to write accomplishment statements. We also have a career resource that will also make the process easier. You can find it below. I hope this helps! There was a time early in my career that I “stretched” the truth and got the interview at a well-known east coast consumer brand company. I failed the interview so miserably that I had to come clean. The interviewers and I both were uncomfortable. I was so embarrassed! I began to approach the interview from my core experience. While it felt better, I knew I had destroyed my credibility with the company.
It turns out that the interviewers respected my “honesty” and called me months later to interview for other positions. For many I wasn’t a true match. I did receive an offer. Unfortunately, I didn’t accept the position because at the time, I was unwilling to relocate where they wanted me to go. The major lesson that I learned from this experience is that It really doesn’t pay to “lie.” Telling a “lie” stems from a lack of confidence. I found my confidence when I exposed my deception and was seen as a potential asset to the organization. Fortunately, you don't have to struggle the way I did. We offer a career tool that will help you prepare for interviews. You can find it below.

My additional commentary: Becoming a manager can be an exciting but scary time. It is easy to be overwhelmed. However, it is exciting when you are able to lead a team, help them grow and support the business. Don't be afraid to ask for help, seek a mentor, take classes; things that can help you be confident. You don't have to have all of the answers. Surround yourself with knowledgeable support that can help you and your team succeed. |
